I recall every holiday my mother opening up a can of cranberry sauce and serving it up on the dinner table. At that time I thought cranberry sauce was good enough to eat a little bit for the holidays. Fast forward many years, when I was having Thanksgiving dinner with my in-laws someone brought some home made cranberry sauce. I was completely surprised how much of a difference there was from canned and home made.
